Notes of Rest: Sabbath and Our Ancestors

Notes of Rest is a practice of contemplation and creativity that moves us towards the rest we were created to receive. This workshop - Sabbath and Our Ancestors - will use music, teaching, and interaction to explore how we carry in our bodies patterns of work and rest inherited from our ancestors. As we explore how some patterns helped our ancestors survive, we will ask how those patterns serve us today. And, what from our ancestors - familial and spiritual - have been buried deep inside of us that yearns to be released and given life?

Notes of Rest is a spiritual formation ministry grounded in scripture and black music that helps the body of Christ receive Gods gift of rest.
